5-year-old boy gets off at wrong bus stop
A 5-year-old Maryland boy was let off the bus at the wrong bus stop and ended up walking to the nearest school, crossing over into D.C. Prince George’s County Public Schools is tight-lipped and has provided few answers. FOX 5's Tisha Lewis has more from Suitland.
Amari says he was told by the bus driver he couldn't get back on once he realized the mistake. Amari then started walking and came upon a nearby school where a police officer helped get him home.
Chernelle Luckey, Amari's mom, says the entire system needs to be fixed and better communication methods instituted. "At the end of the day the school's asking – OK – well if he's not on the bus where is he? And nobody can give us the answer," she said. "I hear horror stories all the time of children either dropped off at the wrong stops or not making it home."
FOX 5 reached out to Suitland Elementary about their protocols and we're still waiting to hear back.
